Yes, it will help as betadine is an antiseptic agent. You don't need to gargle it, you just have to rinse it.
Will take around approximately a week or more to heal depending on the severity of your wound.
If it does not improve in a longer run, please consult a dentist.
Avoid using a cloth to rub your teeth and gums.
Instead use a soft bristled toothbrush to clean and be gentle while using over the gums.

You can exercise for healthier gums as well. Gently bite down so as to make sure that your teeth make a clinking sound when they meet. Repeat this 30 to 40 times continuously. This exercise will stimulate the flow of blood and will keep your gums healthy.

During a root canal procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. Without treatment, the tissue surrounding the tooth will become infected and abscesses may form.
